What is below the lithosphere and how does this help to explain the theory of plate tectonics?
The lithosphere of the Earth is composed of the crust and the upper part of the upper mantle, and is broken up into plates. Below the lithosphere is the asthenosphere, which is the lower part of the upper mantle and the entire lower mantle. The asthenosphere is a plastic-like substance that flows due to convection. As this substance flows, it causes the plates above it to move around. Plate tectonics is the theory that the lithosphere is divided into plates that are constantly in motion.
What do you mean by counter flow system?
s an arrangement, as in Figure 3, in which the air flows upward through the fill and the water flows downward through the fill.

How is the lithosphere different from the layer beneath it?

Does liquid magma flows upward through the crust because it is less dense than the solid material around it?

Oil flows upward in the wick of a lantern because of the liquid property called what?
Oil flows up through a wick through capillary action. This property causes the surface of a liquid to rise above the rest of it when in contact with a solid. Essentially, it pulls itself up to a certain height.
